Allen no matter how you cut it is a better QB then Burrow.
Is he? I think they're of a similar standard, though Allen definitely has the advantage of what he can do running the ball himself.
I think Allen is a great QB, but to me he seems to have problems winning when the lights are on. It's not as simple as this obviously, but he's 5-5 in his playoff career, and the Bills have had a pretty good team around him for most of that time as well.
Joe Burrow is 5-2 in the playoffs, with a defence that has done a lot of carrying... but he's 5-2 while getting sacked every other play, and with no serious run game.
In the regular season... unfortunately Allen's injury record clearly beats Burrow's, but their regular season stats are similar when looking at the year's Burrow has actually been fit for the season... with Burrow having a higher completion%, slightly more yards on average, slightly more TDs and slightly few INTs.
Interested to hear why you think Allen is a better QB?
